Level 4 Lesson 21 / Spacing Part 2 / 띄어쓰기

In a previous lesson, we looked at how spacing works in Korean. In this lesson, we are going to look at some examples of expressions that can mean two different things depending on whether they have spacing in the middle or not. Listen in to find out what those expressions are and be sure to practice with us by making sample sentences on your own!

I’d like to thank you for the efforts you’ve put in penning this site. I am hoping to check out the same high-grade content from you in the future as well. In fact, your creative writing abilities has encouraged me to get my very own website now

I have read so many posts concerning the blogger lovers however this post is genuinely a good piece of writing, keep it up.

선생님들, 제가 질문 있어요. ^_^

1). I am wondering that how can we know whether it’s a spacing or not when talking since it’s so much different in the meaning with spacing and without spacing between the words???

2). How many pages are there supposed to be in this lesson PDF ? I only can manage to read page1 and page2, but page3 and page4 are empty ??

감사합니다!!! ^_^

I’ve got the same question as Caddie! (Hope someone will look into this?…) For example, you mention “빌려 주다” and “빌려주다” (w/out the space!), how am I supposed to highlight the difference in a conversation? When I am explaining to someone that I borrowed from someone rather than lending him something (stuff or money) for example, how do I clarify this? …The rampant lack of personal pronouns keeps Korean challenging.

something wrong with the PDF file. I can only read the first 2 pages only. and how come examples did not appear in the PDF? I had to listen and look up English – Korean dictionary at the same time and finally learnt that ‘keys’ Hyunwoo mentioned is ‘연쇠’ in Korean.

Jung Eun,

Please check the PDF. The 2 empty pages were not supposed to be there. : )

요즘 검인트 남길 못했어요. 시간이 있으면, 검인트 남길하고싶어요.

어제 일 전에 정말 비곤해서 준비 다 안했어요. I was so tired after work I couldn’t complete the preparations.

비가 내리는 날에 제일 좋아하는 하는건 혼자 집에 있는거 예요. On a rainy day what I mostly like to do is stay home alone.

덜 안 온 사람이 누구인데요? Who hasn’t arrived yet? (And why?)

길을 모르면 아무나에게 물어봐도 돼요! ==> if you do not know your way, you can ask anyone..

어제는 제 여친이 많이 웃었는데 오늘은 왜 이렇게 울어는지 아직 알아보고있어.. My gf was smiling a lot yesterday but i am still trying find out why she is crying so much today. haha thankfully this is just a sample sentence.. 여친 찐자 없어요…

I’ve been thinking about this for a while now. I’m currently in Stage 2 but i really wanted to give a suggestion. You see, I’ve been trying to write in Korean, especially in the Workbooks. But the problem is, well, most of us are not too sure about how exactly to write in Korean. So I was thinking why not teach us proper handwriting. I’ve seen a few handwriting videos but it’s too brief. So please teach us Korean handwriting!! Thanks!

if it does exist, would someone be able to provide some example situations/sentences? thanks ^^;;;;;

Concerning “마음에 들어한다”, I can use the expression when I talk about other person but me.

For example,

그 사람은 너를 마음에 들어해?

Does he like you?

그녀는 나를 마음에 들어한다.

She likes me.

The word “좋다” has meanings of “good”, “like”.

For examle,

나는 성격이 좋다. I have a good personality.

나는 그녀가 좋다. I like her.

However, “좋아하다” doesn’t have a meaning of “good”, it only mean “to like”.

An nyeong! I understand the lesson pretty well but here is a question.Even though these words are much different when written,are there any differences when people talk very fast? I think they might sound the same,are they?

안녕하세요 선상님들 , 이 레슨 만들어 주셔서 감사합니다

wow ,it’s really complicated , i guess i made this kind of mistake while writing sentences quite many time lol everybody … uhm …. ofcourse when you learn a foreign language , listening is always the hard , if not the hardest , part , and of course this will be really really hard to differentiate when you’re talking ,i think perhaps even Korean find it hard too , but … complaints can’t help you to solve the problem , i guess

annyeong haseyo ^^ can ı ask a questıon? ı cant find the Turkish translation of this point ^^ can you give me an offer ? ıf you cant, no matter ^^ because ı know English and ı think ı can translate it into turkish^^ kamsahamnida ^^

안녕하세요 선생님들! 잘지내셨어요? 질문해도돼요? In kpop songs I hear a lot the verb”돌아오다”, does it have the same meaning with “돌아가다”? 감사합니다!

http://twitter.com/jinseokjin jinseokjin

돌아오다 means “to come back” and 돌아가다 means “to go back”.

Actually the title of this lesson “띄어쓰다”… should there be a space between “띄어” and “쓰다”? I looked up “띄어쓰다” in the dictionary and it is there… so I guess this is an example where it is so commonly used that it has now become a word that should not be spaced? Thanks.

Hi Richard Kim, The title of the lesson is 띄어쓰기. As the word “띄어쓰기” is admitted as a noun so there is no spacing between 띄어 and 쓰기. However, like 띄어 쓰다, when it is used as a verb, it is correct to add a spacing.
